Sensitization patterns to Poaceae pollen indicates a hierarchy in allergens and a lead of tropical grasses.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The allergenicity of pollen of Poaceae family members is a well-known and confirmed fact. Using the data of component-resolved molecular diagnostics of allergy, we set a goal to establish the population and individual characteristics of sensitization to grass pollen and assess the patterns of its development.

Methods

Multiplex allergy Alex² test results of 20,033 patients were used. In addition to descriptive statistics to uncover traits of the sensitized population, statistical inference was utilized to establish the conditional probability of sensitisation, the nature of links between allergens, and the most frequent combinations of allergens in individual patient profiles.

Results

Sensitivity to grass pollen comprised 30.79% of the studied sam
